I'm borrowing someone else's computer to post this. I have several new paintings but unfortunately MY computer is at the infirmary. I don't know what's wrong with it so I certainly don't know when to expect it back. Since I leave day after tomorrow to drive from the Seattle area to Santa Fe and back it will be a while before there are new pieces to view.
In the meantime, please enjoy all the other wonderful painters at DailyPainters.com
See you all soon........I hope.

6x6" oil on gessoboard
love flip flops. love to wear them, love to paint them. They can be so graphic, so getting lost in the shapes and the colors rather than the subject is easy and fun. easy and fun - just like flip flops...spot on.

"Say What?" oil on masonite

click on image to bid

This woman is actually one of my dearest friends. It's funny how we can get caught in an off moment and there's no getting it back. When you see her in person she has a most amazing look. Her hair is a wonderful, deep shade of red and naturally curly. She has eyes that dance and a laugh that draws you in. I cherish every minute of our friendship. Whenever we eek out time together I come away uplifted. I'd really like to have her come sit for me in a more formal and flattering situation but she just says "NO!" in that deep, raspy voice that enhances all her magical story telling.

"Fair Maid" oil on masonite 8x8" SOLD

click on image to bid

I met this little beauty at a recent city art event. She never did look me in the eye. She wasn't clingy, just sort of removed. You may see more of her. There is something quite magical about her fair skin and vibrant hair.

oops - forgot to post a cupcake on my sons B-Day earlier this month! I just got these 2 "Birthday Boys" back and they are available again too. (check my DP page for them) - cause everyone knows MY birthday boy would prefer black and white cupcakes if at all - maybe alittle bamboo green thrown in for color :)

We were at a function held by some very good friends. There was a wonderful music trio performing classical music. This woman sat by me the entire evening. She presented wonderful images for painting. Look for more to come.

Since we live in the country it's not unusual to see these cute little devils. However, sharing my pie cherries is NOT on my list of acceptable happenings.

"Asking for the Obvious" oil on masonite SOLD

click on image to bid

Well! its been a while. Things at Owings/Brown Studios have been very hectic. Last weekend we hosted our 8th annual pasture party. We had 100+ guest and roasted a whole pig as well as barbequing a 22lb tuna. There has been little time for the studio. However, today was a glorious return. Even though I had to wear my "fanny pack" loaded with ridiculous stuff as I "train" for the September 3 day, 60 mile walk for cancer research it was still fun to be in front of my easel.

painting en plein air at the beach again (sorry if youre sick of it, cant help it, its endlessly fascinating to me ) On this day, there were 2 things that really stuck out. 1. the red tide and lack of waves and 2. the huge puffy white clouds. My boys found the 1 spot with no seaweed and I found a good spot to sit and paint. Ahh, summer.

Next Set - big

12x12" oil on gessoboard $300
this is the 'bigger' Next Set. Ive done a few versions of this image in different sizes, trying things out. Just like its tough to turn a sketch from a sketchbook into a more complete drawing/painting, it is also hard to paint an image again and bigger. So I kept working this one until I was happy. Had to learn which of my 'big' brushes would be my 'go to' ones and had to learn to keep the freshness...
